Lead SDET and QA Automation Engineer improving reliability through scalable, AI-assisted testing.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Lead SDET / QA Automation Engineer with 13+ years of experience in manual and automation testing across enterprise systems. I focus on quality, reliability, and continuous improvement—building test strategies that stand up under real-world delivery pressure.
In my current role at Afiniti (Apr 2021 – May 2026), I led end-to-end test automation for large-scale enterprise systems. I designed and maintained robust automation frameworks using in-house tools (Hammer) and modern stacks, developed UI automation with Selenium WebDriver and Playwright, and integrated API automation directly into delivery pipelines.
I also built and optimized CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins with scheduled builds and regression suites to improve stability and execution efficiency across environments. I leverage AI tools (Claude and LLM copilots) to enhance test design, debugging, and automation efficiency, while collaborating with Agile/Scrum teams across the SDLC lifecycle.
Previously at Swipbox (Apr 2019 – Apr 2021), I designed automation framework architecture, delivered UI automation with Selenium WebDriver, and built API automation using RestAssured for embedded systems. Across 1DPL, Arkhitech, and Appic Solutions, I consistently shipped automation and quality improvements—spanning UI, API, performance, and database validation—using tools like JMeter, SQL queries, and cloud-executed regression on AWS.
